Introducing Lymphoedema and Oncology Services

Hi, I’m Fiona Collins, a specialist physiotherapist who joined Premier Physiotherapy at the end of 2024 after 11 years working in oncology and lymphoedema care in Holland. I’m delighted to offer the following services.

My one-on-one sessions provide tailored support for patients preparing for, undergoing, or recovering from cancer treatments, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. Key benefits include:
- Improved strength, balance, and mobility.
- Management of fatigue, pain, scars, and other symptoms.
- Personalized exercise plans for enhanced physical function.
- Guidance on long-term effects of cancer treatments.
- Emotional support to rebuild confidence and independence.

- Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
- Compression garment fitting and education.
- Tailored exercises to prevent complications and improve well-being.

These group sessions support patients in the later stages of recovery. Led by a specialist physiotherapist, they offer:
